[QUOTE="francisca, post: 1598284, member: 9734"] Much like Umbran's description actually.... Player: Pretty much a jack of all trades. I'm a good at tactical things, when given a situation, I can McGyver something together to win through or at least beat a hasty retrograde advance with minimal loss. I'm also adept at reading the DM and figuring out subtle plot points. (Which is ironic, as I am unsubtle in almost all aspects of my life.) DM: I am best at driving the players before me and hearing the lamentations.....oh, alright, but someone had to say it. :p As a DM, I am best at winging it. Like TB, I don't plan adventures very often. I have an understanding of how things work in my game world and how groups and individuals react to the world around them. I have a general idea of where things are going, and have what I call macro events planned (like a plague causing a migration of humanoids, or natural disasters), but the rest of the plot is derived from the players interacting with the world.
